** Attachment added: "Access Time of SMBNETFS compared to MOUNT.CIFS" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738310/+attachment/1921110/+files/Error.xls
** Package changed: ubuntu => smbnetfs (Ubuntu) ** Description changed: Hello, I tried opening remote files (via SAMBA on a Windows XP Professional CPU) via KIO SLAVES in my Kubuntu distribution and I couldn't open most of them because a lot of aplcations don't have support for KIO SLAVES smb:// protocol (and I don't know why - it's a lot more efficient to access a remote path directly than mounting it with CIFS or something related...)... PROBLEM: Anyway, when I open any file via SMBNETFS mounting filesystem, I have a delay when compared to the CIFS mounting (to mount via CIFS I used MOUNT.CIFS)... So is this delay related to the WORKGROUP scan or is it a bug of the program? SOLUTION: Use CIFS similar way of mounting remote SAMBA paths on SMBNETFS to speed it up... SOME IMPORTANT INFORMATION: - In the attachments are a XLS file that has some information about how - this delay affected the accessing speed... + In the attachments there is a XLS file that has some information about + how this delay affected the accessing speed... Thanks for your attention and help, André M. ** Description changed: Hello, I tried opening remote files (via SAMBA on a Windows XP Professional CPU) via KIO SLAVES in my Kubuntu distribution and I couldn't open most of them because a lot of aplcations don't have support for KIO SLAVES smb:// protocol (and I don't know why - it's a lot more efficient to access a remote path directly than mounting it with CIFS or something related...)...
